IBM internal awards:

A-level Accomplishment Award 2014

Outstanding Technical Achievement Award in 2014

Research Division Technical Group Award in 2003

The IBM Research Division Technical Group Awards was established to recognize leadership, rapid execution and exceptional teamwork in today’s business environment.The award recognizes contributions to inventing and utilizing a new emission technique for eliminating latchup problems in CMOS technologies.

The award is issued on the forth filed patent application and recognizes innovation capabilities.

Bravo! Award in 2003 and 2004The
award is a monetary prize from the management to recognize exceptional
commitment, contributions and results on a technical issue relating IBM
products.

Thanks! Award in 2004 (1), 2005 (2), 2006 (3), 2007 (2), and 2008 (1)The
award is issued from peers in recognition of exceptional help provided
to them in their research activities, above and beyond normal team
collaboration.

Additional external recognitions:

Stellari's animation methodology for lathcup testingThe
methodology that we developed in 2003 to study latch-up ignition and
propagation by using time-integrated emission measurements has been
recently reported as "Stellari's animation methodology" in the book "Latchup" by S.H. Voldman (John Wiley, 2007).
The author reports that the techniques allows for better visual
understanding of the latch-up ignition with a greater time resolution
compared to the standard JDEC78 technique. The latchup propagation
phenomenon is controlled and studied by limiting the injection current
and taking subsequent time integrated images of the emission due to
carrier recombination. Additional results presented in our previous
papers have also been reported.
